Chapter 1483: Blood Demon Worm

In the Netherworld Space, the black mist as dark as ink is churning, with not a speck of light.

No matter how high one’s cultivation, upon entering, vision, hearing, and other senses will vanish, as if one is the only person left in the world, a loneliness that can drive one mad.

These churning black mists are not ordinary; they are Netherworld Power, capable of weakening one’s combat abilities.

Qin Yi just lies atop the churning black mist, eyes tightly closed, unconscious.

Jing Wangyou steps forward, scrutinizing Qin Yi.

Qin Yi’s condition is relatively stable, though earlier, his features were contorted, like a demon or monster, looking very frightening.

At this moment, apart from a pale complexion, everything else seems fine.

Jing Wangyou extends his hand, ready to check Qin Yi’s physical state. But just then, Qin Yi suddenly opens his eyes.

Jing Wangyou’s hairs stand upright on his back, retreating as if electrocuted.

Qin Yi reveals a spine-chilling smile, making Jing Wangyou’s hair stand on end.

"Qin Yi, my young friend, calm down. With your skills, I trust you can regain rationality."

Jing Wangyou shouts, truly unwilling to engage with Qin Yi.

If pushed, Qin Yi has the power to destroy the Absolute Domain.

"Jing Palace Master, which one of us is out of control? I feel like you’re the one acting strangely."

Qin Yi smirks playfully.

Jing Wangyou is stunned, cautiously asking:

"Are you alright now?"

Qin Yi smiles slightly, nodding.

"If you’re fine, why scare me with such ghostly antics? It’s so boring."

Jing Wangyou feels a bit embarrassed; he was genuinely frightened earlier, looking somewhat disheveled.

Qin Yi laughs, "I found it rather amusing. I think I’m the only one who can scare the Netherworld Hall Master."

Jing Wangyou feels speechless.

He steps forward, looking at Qin Yi:

"You really are a monster; my Netherworld Domain seems to have no effect on you."

"Normally, upon entering, one’s vision and touch would disappear, and combat abilities would be weakened. What kind of creature are you to show no reaction at all?"

Qin Yi chuckles, saying:

"To be honest, my eyes can’t see."

Jing Wangyou looks dumbfounded, standing there stunned for a while before saying:

"Are you kidding? In my Netherworld Domain, you looked perfectly fine, seeing more clearly than anyone."

"I’m serious, Qin has a divine skill, fearsome in power, but each use renders my eyes blind."

Seeing that Qin Yi spoke earnestly, Jing Wangyou began to believe him a bit.

"Something’s not right! You’re blind, yet you seem like an ordinary person visually and are unaffected by my Netherworld Domain."

"I know that people who are blind often have extraordinary hearing, able to discern positions from sounds. But in my Netherworld Domain, hearing is sealed off. How do you manage to see?"

Qin Yi laughs, "Actually, it’s alright to tell you because I occasionally go blind until I break through a layer for my vision to return. So, I’ve cultivated the heart-eye technique, which allows me to see clearly without using my eyes. Therefore, your Netherworld Domain has no effect on me."

"Heart-eye?" Jing Wangyou looks utterly baffled, "What is that? I’ve never heard of it. Does the heart have eyes?"

"It’s not that the heart has eyes, but rather it’s about using the heart to sense and see things. Seeing with the heart is clearer than using the eyes."

Jing Wangyou looks full of admiration, saying:

"Although I don’t understand it well, Qin Yi, my young friend’s skills are truly admirable."

Qin Yi suppresses his laughter; the notion of a heart-eye is sheer nonsense, yet Jing Wangyou seems to believe it.

Jing Wangyou steps forward, concerned, "Qin Yi, you’re sure you’re alright? Won’t lose control again?"

Qin Yi nods slightly.

"Why did you suddenly lose control? Was it a deviation during cultivation?"

Qin Yi nods, "Perhaps I was too impatient, leading to a mishap in energy movement."

"Cultivation is not done in haste; take care to be more cautious in the future."

"Tonight, you lost control, almost accidentally killing Miss Yun, and nearly destroyed the Netherworld Hall."

Qin Yi is completely stunned.

He knew losing control would definitely cause destruction, but he didn’t recall almost accidentally killing Yun Mengyao at all.

"Is she alright?"

"She’s okay; maybe you retained a bit of rationality, and at a critical moment, the Big Halberd veered a few centimeters, merely grazing her skin, it’s nothing serious."

Qin Yi is shocked; he had entirely lost his rationality at that time, absolutely unable to hold back.

"It was you, Blood Flood Dragon, wasn’t it?"

Qin Yi transmits the thought telepathically and asks.

"Master, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to betray you," Blood Flood Dragon’s voice is filled with fear.

Knowing Qin Yi is the master, doing this is to defy the master’s intent.

Qin Yi breathes a heavy sigh of relief, "I don’t blame you, you’ve done well."

Luckily for Blood Flood Dragon, had he truly lost control and killed Yun Mengyao, he’d never forgive himself for life.

"Qin Yi, my young friend, since you’re alright, let’s go out. Everyone is worried about you."

Qin Yi smiles bitterly, "Can I hide here for two days?"

Jing Wangyou looks at him in confusion.

"If I go out now, Yun Mengyao, that woman will surely fight me to the death."

Jing Wangyou can’t help but laugh.

"Qin Yi, my young friend, you can dodge today, but not forever; what must be faced needs facing. Hiding is useless."

Qin Yi keeps smiling bitterly.

"Let’s go, seems like I can’t dodge this storm. I hope Yun Mengyao won’t kill me."

Jing Wangyou opens the domain, leading Qin Yi outside.

Qin Yi looks at the hundred-meter-long ravine on the ground and the destroyed buildings, feeling embarrassed.

"Jing Palace Master, I’m truly sorry."

"No worries, as long as you’re okay. I won’t see you off; safe travels."

Qin Yi: "..."

Seeing Jing Wangyou’s playful eyes, Qin Yi feels helpless, imagining Yun Mengyao’s crazed expression.

Qin Yi greets Jing Wangyou before turning to walk towards his residence.

"Master, I’ve thought of something."

On the way back, Blood Flood Dragon suddenly says.

Qin Yi stops, "What did you think of?"

"It’s the Blood Demon Worm."

Qin Yi pauses, then flips his hand to reveal a small white Jade Bottle.

Upon opening, inside the bottle, there’s a dark red strand of hair, only a few millimeters long.

If observed closely, it’s not hair at all, but an extremely tiny worm.

"You say this thing is called the Blood Demon Worm?"

"Yes, Master. I received this knowledge from ancestors in my clan and vaguely remember it’s called the Blood Demon Worm."

"This creature is used to control people; the worm is hard to discern with the naked eye. Once placed on someone and triggers the killing intent in the body, it causes the person to lose rationality completely."

"Master is naturally bloodthirsty, so the Blood Demon Worm easily made you lose your reason. But I can’t figure out who put the worm on Master."

Qin Yi examines the Blood Demon Worm inside the bottle, "Such a small worm can wield such power?"

"Master, the ancestor from my clan you encountered in the Ancient Relic has long passed. So, what I inherited is incomplete overall. All I know is that the Blood Demon Worm can control one’s mind, but whether it requires other things for use remains unknown."
